The Tax.Lien Certificate. Problem.

WHAT COLLECTOR COOK SAYS OF THE NEW LAW
'If Mr.. Atlee demands that we sell that prop
erty at once" said Collector Cook to-day referring
to the matter OF the proposed sale Of property upon
which lien certificates exist, 81 don't see but what
the Commissioners Will have to comply, regardless
OF their desire In the matter. But the sale may
easily be delayed until the time for the regular
sale in September by our failing to complete the
listing of his property until that time. The law
says this must be done within a reasonable time
from the date OF the demand OF the holders OF the
certificates. We have other matters to attend to
In this Office, so that the sale, you see may be
easily delayed until the District shall be fully pre-
pared to defend its interests. An important feature
OF the new law In this regard Is that when such
property is sold the owner Is invested with good
and valid title from the date OF sale thereof. BY
the old law, when the property was sold we
issued a certificate upon which, IL the property
was not redeemed within the two years pre-
scribed, we issued a tax deed. 1t is possible for
complications 10 arise under this new law. For
instance, let US suppose that rent certain prop
erty OF you which Is advertised for sale for taxes
Now then, to prevent my being Inconvenience in
any way, determine to buy the property in at
the tax sale. do so. Then. as have good and
valid title TO the property, which is subject only
TO redemption within two years, it will not be
necessary for me to pay the rent OF the property,
as had done before purchased it."
